Slip Away - Charles Bradley, Menahan Street Band

I forget about the girl who said no

I tell who I want where to go

I forget about your lies and deceit

And your attempt to be so discreet

Maybe today, yeah

I slip away

And you can keep your symbols of success

I pursued my own happiness

You can keep your clock and routine

Then I’ll go mend all my shattered dreams

Maybe today, yeah

And I slip away

Ooh, slip away

'Cause you’ve been down on me far too long

And far too long I just put you on

I’m tired of lying

And I’m, I’m sick of trying

'Cause I’m losing who I really am

Oh

I’m gonna slip away, baby

Oh, maybe tomorrow

Whenever

Ooh

Ah

Come on, let me be me

Ooh

I’m sick and tired

I’m sick and tired
